They are also breaking down the notion that wreaths are only for the holiday season with their [Ice Cream Parlor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/a-whiff-of-wafflecone) Retro Yarn Wreath. This is a pretty bold choice for a wreath, but KnockKnocking isn't a shop for conservative traditional folk. The wreath is handmade and sports a cow in the middle named Bessie alongside a stacked [ice cream cone](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frosted-animal-cookie-ice-cream). KnockKnocking states that this particular wreath was "made with lots of time, love and imagination." ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.0/10 - Popularity: 31% | Activity: 21% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Home](https://www.trendhunter.com/home) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Non-traditional Wreaths:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create and market wreaths for various occasions beyond just the holiday season. - **Handmade Crafts:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop a platform or marketplace focused on selling unique handmade crafts. - **Retro-inspired Decor:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Introduce retro-inspired decor items to appeal to nostalgia-loving consumers. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Art and Crafts:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Embrace digital transformation and offer online courses or tutorials for DIY craft enthusiasts. - **Home Decor:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Use augmented reality technology to allow customers to visualize and try out different decor items in their own space. - **E-commerce:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create a subscription service for unique and curated home decor items delivered to customers' doors. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Edible Wreath Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/california-cheese-wreath-kit.md) - [Ice Cream Charm Necklaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ice-cream-charm-jewelry.md) - [Ice Cream Advent Calendars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/12-days-of-ice-cream.md) - [Ice Cream Countdown Boxes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/double-rainbow-ice-cream.md) - [Sparkling Illuminated Festive Wreaths](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/starry-wreath.md) - [Candy Cane-Infused Cakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/candy-cane-cornflake-ice-cream-cake.md) - [Charitable Edible Wreaths](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wreath-kit.md) - [Retailer-Exclusive Holiday Ice Creams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/van-leeuwen-ice-creams.md) - [Unconventional Ice Creams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-ice-cream-project.md)
